EnumDateFormats
The EnumDateFormats
function enumerates the long or short date formats that are available for a
specified locale, including date formats for any alternate calendars. The value
of the dwFlags parameter determines whether the long or short date
formats are enumerated. The function enumerates the date formats by passing
date format string pointers, one at a time, to the specified
application-defined callback function. This continues until the last date
format is found or the callback function returns FALSE.
